Where students go for apprenticeships

The Startingpoint apprenticeship portal

Empowering students to find the perfect apprenticeship

The apprenticeship portal was developed to connect students, employers, and apprenticeship agencies. A unique place where students can create their profile, browse apprenticeships and engage with employers.

Free Apprenticeships Ads

Utilise the portal to advertise apprenticeships, or use our filtering system to find students with the exact skills and talents required.

StartingPoint enables employers and apprenticeship agencies to view the anonymised student profiles. See how they demonstrate and evidence the skills and experience you need to fill those roles. You can then approach potential students directly through our secure mentor-approved messaging system. The mentor will then ensure a smooth, safe interaction between you and the student.

Inspiring through Apprenticeships

Inspire students through the opportunity to experience the demands of a real working environment, giving them hands-on insight into your industry. Students will be in control and empowered to engage with your roles. The entire platform is here to make the process simple and ultimately increase the number of positive outcomes.

Advice
& guidance

Share industry expertise and experience to inspire and inform students considering different career paths. We support the education sector to connect with apprenticeship agencies that are best placed to provide their students with real-world experience from those best placed to offer it.

Web portal and mobile app

We understand that your time is precious. StartingPoint includes a web-based portal and mobile app to ensure you have the quickest way to list opportunities and engage with potential students.

Connecting safely with students

Our secure messaging system ensures the communication between you and the students is totally safeguarded. Any approach by any party must first be approved by the school mentor. All further communication does not need to be approved, but the mentor will receive a duplicate copy.

StartingPoint is fully encrypted with security measures in place to comply with GDPR and keep your data safe.
